Those are still up for you to comment...
Same deal as before but with the Brawl characters. Those are . Like before, the numbering order puts in with this group, but of course I'm excluding him. With I'll let you decide if you just want to put all three fighters in that one entry or have separate entries for each Pokemon and even one for the trainer himself if you feel like it.
Tangent here. Now that we got to Brawl, I kind of find it funny how this game is a perfect analogy for my opinions on characters. I have a lot of characters that I love, but it means very little when put up against . Sound familiar?
Spoilers tags would be appreciated
Anyways, let's go:

How appropriate that Meta Knight is the first Brawl newcomer in the numbering system...
Not much to say about him. He's an edgelord in a land of color and cuteness. Doesn't interest me as much as another ambiguously villainous anti-hero in the Kirby universe...

I was an unbeliever. I didn't care much for Pit in Brawl. There was nothing I could gleam from his character from the old NES game and I thought his inclusion in Smash was bizarre. Complete waste of my time.
And then Uprising came out, and I was Born Again (yes, the religious analogies are intentional).
They could've gone way too serious and give Pit no personality as that was the impression I got from playing Brawl. But holy **** did they ever go above and beyond in making him interesting and quirky and lovable. His lines (and most of the other characters in the game) are ones you don't see coming in a relatively high stake story like Uprising. I also kinda feel sorry for him for the **** that Palutena puts him up to (though I'll get to her soon enough...).

This is a weird one. Didn't we already talk about Samus in part one? I could just say that everything I said about Samus applies to ZSS, but I feel that this character comes with an asterisk. The Zero Suit shows what it's like for Samus to adapt to situations when her main method of kicking *** is taken away from her. I think that's a neat touch.
Wario is a bizarrely charming character. I like him
God, my heart's not into these explanations without Yoshi...

YAWWWWN!!!
Okay, it's transparently clear that I don't give two ****s about the Metal Gear franchise. But even if I did, I would assume that I would like the absolutely insane plot and the other characters (Raiden, Ocelot, Liquid Snake, Big Boss, Revolver Ocelot, Grey Fox, etc.) over Snake himself. He comes off as the "Mario" of MG, and you know how I feel about him.

It's been a while since I played Path of Radiance, but Ike is pretty okay from what I remember, being one of the few Fire Emblem protagonists who isn't a Lord. He can get kinda preachy sometimes, but I let it slide.
When I think of Pokemon, I don't think of specific Pokemon or "mascots." To me Pokemon trainers are what represent the series the most. Sure the avatar doesn't have much of a personality, but it's not necessary this time around (unlike Link). I am the trainer who goes out on a quest to become the greatest Pokemon Master. And I like me, at least I hope I do.
As for the 3 Pokemon fighters, I like them. Since they're reptiles they certainly rise to the top of my favorites, Charizard in particular. Also, do you find it odd that the 3 starters of the first Pokemon gen are all reptiles? It's like they were trying to pull me specifically in, but failed.

I like Diddy significantly less than Donkey Kong, but he still has a special place in my heart. Being the lead in one of the best games of all time certainly helps out a lot (boom box victory animation. Make it happen Sakurai!!!) People say he's an annoying little **** but other than Smash I don't really get that opinion.
I'm gonna be lazy and just say "go play Mother 3." If you didn't have strong feelings about Lucas, you will after playing Mother 3.
Feelings about the games and the fanbase aside, Sonic himself is pretty cool. He's pretty consistent in the games no how off-the-rails they get. He's a cocky, self-confident, humorous, no-nonsense hedgehog who wants to go fast. As long as he sticks to those traits I like him. Often self-importance and Super Sonic get in the way, but eh...
I hate birds and not a fan of the Kirby cast.... Dedede is the exception to both.
It's kind of a shame that he gets sidelined as the main antagonist of the series. He fits in more than [insert generic dark cosmic being here], and honestly that trope is getting old and giving Kirby fans an ego ("Oh, Kirby is the most powerful being and can kick everyone's butt because he takes on so many dark cosmic beings!!!). Dedede will always be the best villain. Only he can pull off being clumsy and goofy without diminishing his capability of being a threat. Bowser can't, Ganondorf can't (see Zelda cartoon), King K. Rool tries but can't, only Dedede. If ever the Smash villains have to fight for a spot in Smash or else get cut, I always root for Dedede.

No opinion. Never played Pikmin.
FURRY GOKU!!!
But in all seriousness, I think Lucario is just fine.

The infamous R.O.B., he makes games severely more tedious and convoluted than they should've been. Yeah I know, "saved the video game industry by tricking retailers into thinking the NES was a toy yadda yadda" but that doesn't make him not crap!!!
This is it. THE Link I care about the most. If it wasn't for this Link, I'd still be a Sony bot to this day (I'd still obsess over Yoshi, but probably not as much). Wind Waker got me into getting a Gamecube and to sell my PlayStation, and boy how it changed my life!!! Link himself actually had a personality for the first time. He has a **** ton of expressions just by standing idle. When he slips and falls on ice, I can actually feel the pain because he emotes so well. I was invested in his journey to save his sister because he showed how much she means to him without saying a word. Skyward Sword Link is a close second for being my favorite Link, but WW Link is number 1.
I'm pretty sure he's a good character in Star Fox, but I'm just gonna have to take the fans at their word on this. I know NOTHING about Wolf other than that he's a bad guy, his last name is O'Donnell and there's tons of furry art of him.
